Library Opening Wednesday 26th November

Come to the Special Events

Chris has sent us the following update :

It’s less than a week now until Mottingham Library opens its doors to the public again – & what a transformation! Behind the scenes we have been beavering away re-stocking the shelves with thousands of books (old & new), re-arranging the new furniture & trying to get our heads round all the new technology. If you thought we had it all before – you should see us now!

Please do all come along on opening day Wednesday 26th November .The Library will be open from 11am – 7pm (no lunchtime closure that day). It will be a packed programme, which at the moment looks like this:

11am – official opening by the Mayor of Bromley

11.15am –  Pre-schoolers event with author Rashmi Sirdeshpande

12 midday – 1pm A showcase of some of our new technology, including 3d printers, digital cutting machines, robotic Lego, VR headsets & our ‘Cubbie’ – instant stress reduction sensory pod (Believe me this is something everyone can benefit from!) – & more!!

3.45 – 5pm drop in crafts for school age children

5.30 – 6.45pm London Talk by Chris -’10 Cats & a Mouse – or thereabouts: A Virtual Trip through London in search of some Famous Felines’

Free Refreshments will be provided between 11am & 1pm

There really will be something for everyone, & you’ll be able to see what we have on offer for the rest of the year.

Not a Bromley Library Member? – come along anyway – if you bring one proof of name & address we can join you up on the spot.
